Résumé

Sarcopenia in heart failure (HF) is associated with severe outcomes, increased mortality, and high healthcare cost burden. Systematic muscle screening in patients with chronic HF would improve quality and appropriateness of care. Here we tested handgrip strength (HGS) as a screening tool for sarcopenia in patients with chronic HF, using the EWGSOP 2010 and 2019 reference-standard definitions of sarcopenia.
